RO e-Factura — BT-24 still declaring CIUS-RO:1.0.0 (BR-RO-001)

The single most common Romanian rejection, and the only thing wrong with this file: BT-24 still says CIUS-RO:1.0.0, a value retired on 29 December 2022 (order OMF 4092/2022). The invoice is impeccable in every other respect and passes the XSD. Both example invoices the Ministry itself still publishes carry this defect — and the Ministry’s own validator rejects them.

How we know these results hold

Every file in this library is run through the site's own validator on each build. The expected result stated above is asserted by an automated test — if a file stopped matching what this page claims, the build would fail. Two inherited fixtures were repaired this way before publication: three IBANs failed the mod-97 check and several names used characters outside the basic SEPA character set.
